Rainbow - Man On The Silver Mountain (From "Live In Munich 1977)

[@BSIII]

Rainbow was a supergroup. Anyone who got to see these guys live should feel lucky.

[@peteelios6287]

I saw every concert from Bonnet 1979 - 1984 Joe Turner was my favorite. Singing his love songs to my girl was so easy & user friendly to remember. And then I hated seeing him going back to purple & Gillan really EFFED it up completely for me. Richie should of never of disbanded Rainbow, JLT was the perfect singer for the 80's not' Gillan.! I was so sad.

[@mikepalmer8]

I saw them play on this tour - Glasgow Apollo, aged 15. Dio was a fantastic singer, one of the best. Blackmore was less impressive tbh, but maybe he had an off night. Saw Gary Moore play with Thin Lizzie a few years later at the same venue - still the best I've ever seen.

and the intro!!!!

[@Katsem]

Yea, for me it’s not a out ‘the best”, although Richie is one of the absolute all time greats. It’s about who I want to listen to. He’s so melodic, creative, and bad ass at the same time. Some of the best riffs and solos, but mostly he’s just just an amazing musician.

[@josephledux8598]

Dio and Blackmore were such a great match. One thing you could say about both of them is that when they went up on stage to perform live, they didn't leave a damn thing behind in the studio. You got both of them at their peak, at there best. People with that talent are born to perform live. They don't need the support of editing and engineering to do their thing and make it sound good. If you ran into them both at a party, and had them sit down, and handed Blackmore a cheap acoustic guitar, what you'd still get would be absolute genius.

[@alejandrogarciacamarena4921]

I’d say they were a horrible match, inasmuch as Ronnie left Rainbow because he and Blackmore couldn’t stand each other.

[@antoniodorso]

Some people get to see an idol maybe 1 or 2 times in concert.....I marvel at the fact that when Ronnie was with ELF, and prior to his mega fame, they used to play our home town here in NE Pa an average of at least once every 2 months at a local club, and that I probably saw him at least 30 times.....not to mention the fact that it was from something like 10 feet away, as we all stood there transfixed.......still blows my mind to this day.....then all of a sudden it stopped cold turkey as ELF broke up, and we found out that he had gone with Rainbow.....then coming to the realization that indeed, he was on his way, and, more over that we had been privileged to see GREATNESS from such an early vantage point.
